The YCAB and YRED split doesn't make sense and there could be some issues during the transit along the coast between Bribie Island and Beachmere with inbound calls etc.

Apparently CASA chose to ignore both club’s wishes and listened to the strident clamouring of just two individuals
I'd be interested to know who these two individuals are.

I'd urge pilots to submit an incident report everytime there is a conflict with another aeroplane due to different frequencies and hopefully in 6-12 months it will be changed.

On the other hand, how about you DON'T make a radio call every time you turn, change height or sneeze overhead Bribie Island. It seems to me to be a bad habit developed by the RAC clan many years ago. The Archerfield and Gold Coast training areas can be far busier and they all manage ok by looking out the window.
